When the EGR opens & lets in all that exhaust, the water serves to normalize the temps.<P>Plug it back in unless you've got your EGR blocked off.<P>Lots of people think they gain power by blocking off the 200 degree water, but it actually keeps the air cooler unless you've ditched the EGR system. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
